What customers say

Real reviews from Akron customers

Easy to order and gotta say I really love their professional attitude which is rare these days. I highly recommend them if you’re in need of a dumpster I know I definitely wouldn’t go anywhere else. I appreciate them for making my task so easy a caveman could do it lol. Thank you Rubbish Outlaw!

Absolutely amazing service. I've never dealt with a dumpster delivery service that takes such great pride in their work. Dumpsters arrive exactly when promised and the speed at which they are delivered is wild. I won't use any other company while Ohio Dumpster Solutions is open for business.

King Dumpsters was fantastic to work with! They were less expensive than other companies plus they were able to get me the dumpster and size I needed the same day! When they picked up the dumpster my husband said he didn't even hear a thing! Great job and highly recommend.

What size dumpster do you need in Akron?

Roofing Projects

A typical Akron roof tear-off generates 3–5 tons of shingles and underlayment. A 20–30 yard dumpster handles most single-layer residential roofs, but go with a 30 if you have a multi-layer strip or architectural shingles. Ask your hauler about weight limits — asphalt shingles are heavy and overweight fees in Ohiocan add $75–$150 per extra ton.

Kitchen Remodels

Kitchen gut-outs produce cabinets, countertops, flooring, and drywall — bulky but relatively light. A 10–15 yard dumpster is usually enough for a standard kitchen demo in Akron. If you're removing tile flooring or concrete countertops, size up to a 20 yard to stay under the weight cap.

Estate Cleanouts

Clearing an entire home in Akrontypically requires a 20–30 yard dumpster. Furniture, mattresses, clothing, and household items fill space fast. Plan for 2–3 loads if the property has a garage, attic, and basement. Schedule a 7–14 day rental so you can sort donations from trash without rushing.

Garage Cleanouts

Most Akrongarage cleanouts fit comfortably in a 10–15 yard dumpster. That covers accumulated tools, storage bins, old furniture, and miscellaneous junk. If you're also tearing out shelving, drywall, or a workbench, bump up to a 20 yard to be safe.

Construction Projects

New builds, additions, and major renovations in Akron generate heavy mixed debris — concrete, lumber, drywall, and metal. A 30–40 yard dumpster is standard for active job sites. Most contractors in Ohio keep a roll-off on site for the full project duration and swap it out when full.
